From a Wall Street Journal story by Isabella Simonetti headlined “CNN Has Big Plans for Town Hall Star”:

CNN’s town hall with former President Donald Trump wasn’t just a high-stakes event for the network. It was a big moment for one of its rising stars.

Kaitlan Collins, who moderated the town hall, has rocketed through CNN’s ranks over the past three years, from chief White House correspondent to morning show anchor to, now, a top candidate to help CNN Chief Executive Chris Licht remake prime time.
